I was born in a messed up world
Wide-eyed, little lonely girl
In love, it was plain to see
Nobody held on me
I moved around until I messed up good
Lost myself like they said I would
Ain't like I want it to 
But nobody held onto me

I spent everyday running away
But all I needed was

Real deal, real love
The kind that won't give up
When I'm not quite good enough
Big field, your heart, no doors or reasons to run out
I gotta find someone like me
If I really don't want him to leave

Whoa...

Well, I cursed this damn old world
It ain't easy as boy meets girl
'Cause I watched him walk away
It doesn't mean it wasn't meant to be

I spent every day praying he would stay
I swear all I needed was

Real deal, real love
The kind that won't give up
When I'm not quite good enough
Big field, your heart, no doors or reasons to run out
I gotta find someone like me
If I really don't want him to leave

No, oh-oh

One time
He tried
I loved him
So I can't say he lied
But he let go

One time
He tried
I loved him so
Can't say he lied
But he let go

Real deal, real love
The kind that won't give up
When I'm not quite good enough
Big field, your heart, no doors or reasons to run out, to give up
I gotta find someone like me
And I really don't want him to leave

No, oh-oh
No, I really don't want him to leave
